The Rudest Drivers in America Live Here

Steer clear of these 10 states if you're prone to road rage.

Contrary to popular belief, big-city drivers aren't always the worst on the road. According to a new survey, it looks like the wide open spaces of Idaho breed the rudest drivers in America.

Insure.com surveyed 2,000 drivers from all 50 states and Washington D.C. to figure out which areas had the most hated drivers. And Idaho was rated the rudest because half of its drivers move at a snail's pace and the other half zooms around them. In the state's defense, this might be because many of the roads curve around mountainous areas, and some drivers may slow down if they're not used to them.

Idaho may top the list, but it has company. Drivers in other states including New York, Wyoming, and Vermont received several complaints for speeding, failing to signal, and having a general lack of respect for fellow motorists. Luckily, there's hope for other parts of the country. Drivers in North Dakota, Maine, and New Hampshire were rated the least rude.
